Seems odd they would have to write a date. Isn’t that what a post mark is for?
And as long as it is received by the close of the polls on election day, why would it need a date?
What am I missing?
Apparently lotsa folks drop them off at their polling places.
I recall something about ballots marked with dates that preceded the ballots being mailed to the voters.
There are several ways to deliver a ballot, not all require the USPS. Thanks RINOs for Act 77, which is clearly unconstitutional, but RINOs will RINO. It ain’t fixed.
“Seems odd they would have to write a date.”
I’ve had to sign and date every absentee ballot I’ve ever submitted. I’ve had to sign and date every legal document I’ve executed.
But you raise an interesting point. I wonder what the PA law says. Is it the date written by the voter that counts? The postmark date? The date the mailed ballot was received by the registrar?
It’s like when you “sign and date” any legal document. Both are legally necessary. And it is in your own handwriting and ink. A postmark isn’t you; it’s a machine at the post office.
